The mother of a military policewoman who hanged herself challenged her
daughter’s immediate boss today, demanding to know why he allegedly bullied
her.

Alexandra Barritt questioned Staff Sergeant Julian Clark at the inquest into
the death of Corporal Anne-Marie Ellement, who killed herself in October
2011, two years after claiming that she had been raped by two fellow members
of the Royal Military Police.

“You gave Anne-Marie a particularly hard time compared with other junior ranks
and appeared to enjoy it,” the mother said, representing herself at the
inquest in Salisbury.
